Shades
of Autumn - Oil Creek 2001 Release |
||
The clear
waters of Oil Creek reveal little of its origins. This stream
popular with fly
fishermen and a wide variety of
wildlife, once glistened with petroleum - not trout. Oil once
seeped from the ground and flowed into the creek.
Native Americans, who once believed it had medicinal properties, carefully skimmed it. Then in 1859, Edwin Drake used a drilling technique to begin harvesting the petroleum for profit. |
||
The oil
frenzy lasted less than two decades. By 1875 the wells began to
dry up and the
prospectors packed up to try their
luck elsewhere. Nature slowly reclaimed the valley.
Today,
there is no trace of the oil that changed this valley and the
world.
Otters have been recently re-introduced
to this area. The wildlife is thriving. |
